Whose Baby is a Jedi?

8 comments

Edit: I forgot to include his four month stats! At the doctor he weighed in at 18 lbs and 2 ounces, and stretched just shy of 26″. That’s my big boy!

I know it’s been a while since I posted, and I hate to break it to you, but until the book is done it will stay slow. Hopefully the following will make up for it.

I have never been more proud of my son than during this photoshop moment. This is his after bath towel with a hood, and everytime we use it I call him my little Jedi. He’s the bomb.

Now for some boring non-Star Wars pictures.

This chair is much too big for him.

We’re very serious about our finger sucking. Three at a time!

Here’s non-photoshopped bath time. The wife looks especially hot in this one.

Luke got his four month old shots today. That’s his pediatrician Dr. Nation…the same guy that was taking care of me when I was four months old. Super cool.

Today was also first baby food day! On the menu was “butternut squash.” Mmmmm. We were amazed, the little piggy ate the whole jar! We’ve read that usually they don’t get much of it down the first few tries, but he took to it like a pro. Now cross your fingers baby food=10 hours of sleep.

DVDs For Sale!

If you hadn’t heard already, I am a huge fan of High-Definition video, and everyday my 480p resolution DVDs stare and taunt me with their low resolution!!!!

It’s not actually that bad, but I’m having a firesale. All the DVDs must go! I have this cabinet full of DVDs from when I used to actually buy them, but we never watch any of them. There are some movies that I actually want to own like Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, and The Matrix, but by and large I don’t need movies like Weekend at Bernie, Outbreak, and Pee Wee’s Big Adventure.

I’ve put all 100 or so on Half.com, and already I’ve sold 12! Granted I priced them very competitively because I don’t want to still be selling these things 6 months from now. On average I should be able to get between $1-$3 for each of them, and then with that money I can buy some of the truly good movies in Blu-Ray!

In case you want to buy some of my DVDs, go visit The Blarg’s Store!

Most posts focus on a single topic, which aids the reader in focusing on that which the writer wants them to focus on. This post however will have zero focus.

Right now I’m sitting in the CSUF library wearing my CSULB Dirtbags hat. Crazy CSUFers have been mad-dogging me the whole time, it’s awesome. I saw a stupid girl wearing a t-shirt that read "Stop judging me based on your IGNORANCE." I wanted to tell her "Stop assuming I give a rip about  YOU." I think it would be awesome and she wouldn’t know what to say. How idiotic do you have to be to wear a t-shirt like that? I’m sure she feels so unique, because after all she bought a t-shirt and was able to put it on correctly.

Yesterday we went to Alcatraz Brewing Co. at the Block with Fanny and Mark. It was good. Then we went back to their house to watch part of the Dodger game and kill some time until cheap bowling started at Del Rio. Unfortunately when we went to Del Rio, not only was there a huge wait, but there were 1,000 dirty little kids running around at 9:30 pm! Now I realize it is spring break, but take your dirty little kids home and put them to bed so us adults can have some fun. Due to the dirty little kids and the idiots that work at Del Rio, we left without giving them a cent of our hard-earned money. We instead went to our house and watched the movie Derailed. Very good thriller and I highly recommend you view this movie.

I’ve been eyeing a computer upgrade for the last week and talked the wifey into letting me buy. I’m replacing a 4 year old videocard, a 4.5 year old sound card, and upgrading memory (which in turn will let me overclock). I’ll post more when I actually get the parts tomorrow and have a chance to see them work. It was only $15 more for overnight shipping, otherwise it might have been delayed until Monday, and that would be as annoying as the girl with the stupid t-shirt.

Spending time on a college campus like this reminds me of my years working on my bachelor’s degree. Can anyone explain why it’s "bachelor’s" and not "bachelors"? Who and what exactly is a bachelor, and why does the degree belong to them? Why not "bachelor degree"?

In case anyone was wondering, I still think we should build a wall on our southern border. In fact, the Minutemen are thinking of taking matters into their own hands. They already have landowners there on the border that would let them build. I love the entire Minuteman project. Ordinary citizens willing to do something when the government is not. If you’re a whiny liberal who thinks the Minutemen shouldn’t be doing what they are, then grab a big box of tissues. They’re only helping to enforce the already existing laws that our country has adopted. Citizens Arrest in da house!

I made what I thought was an awesome post over at Amy’s blog, but the only one who deemed it worthy of a reply was Kevin. I spent a good 20 minutes and a great deal of creative thought developing that post!

Who messed up the church bulletin? It went from a clearly defined layout broken up by ministry to just a garbled mess of text. I liked seeing everyone’s mug next to their little column.

The last two paragraphs were only a couple sentences long. I bet you think I’m running out of stuff to say, right? Wrong!

So now that I’ll have a computer that can actually run games created in the 21st century, any suggestions what I should check out? I’ve got Half-Life 2 with CS: Source, so I’ll definitely fire those up. I tried Oblivion on Andrew’s machine and it looked intriguing. Otherwise there are a ton of games that I haven’t even played like BF 2, F.E.A.R., Farcry, Call of Duty 2, Doom 3, Quake 4, and anything else that came out in the last couple years. I’m not really interested in a MMORPG. Star Wars Galaxies held my interest for quite a while, but that was because I had a profit motive. WoW got old…killing and questing for hours on end…and for what? So what should I check out?

I’m almost done with Feast for Crows. I don’t know what to read next though. There are a lot of other fantasy series I could check out like the Dark Tower series, or Goodkind, or Brooks. I’ve read several apologetic books regarding Catholicism, but I’m interested in reading some about Mormonism, Jehovah’s Witnesses, and Muslims. I know I disagree with them, but I’d like to know a little more concretely "why" I do.

I’ve now spent 30 minutes typing random thoughts, and while it’s been fun, I need to go work on homework that is due on Monday. Off to Disneyland after this and probably going to meet up with a buddy from work. Adios bloggers.

I watch a lot of WB shows, and there have been two VERY funny commercials running lately. In fact, they are so funny, not to mention humorous, that I’ve captured them and put them online for your viewing pleasure. Quicktime needed.

Star Wars “Force Push” Commercial

Starburst “Slingshot” Commercial

BOOO! I typed a whole entry and got some server error and it got erased! argg. Everything is now going to be shorter and less witty.

Worship tonight was good. Students in the band are cool, I’m proud of them. Good job.

Stacie and I get keys to new house, less than 2 weeks. Oooh scary. Mario rules, bought us a giftcard to Home Depot, we buy paint.

Next month, young adults go see Star Wars. It be awesome. Maybe first Saturday it’s out, during the day. We can camp outside for a few hours and eat otterpops in line. I go plan that, bye.

Sorry, I started to get witty there at the end with the otterpop thing, my bad.
